Browse the storeWho it is for
Anyone behind on bills, or about to be, after a job loss, cut hours or a medical expense, who wants to ask creditors for a break and keep proof.
Not the right fit if
You need legal help with foreclosure, eviction or a lawsuit: these are letter templates; talk to legal aid or a lawyer.
Why it is different
- Facts only from consumerfinance.gov and consumer.ftc.gov, checked November 2026.
- Templates you edit; no promises about what a creditor will do.
- Word files to fill in and PDFs to print.
What is inside
- Start here: what to ask for. Payment plans, deferrals, temporary reductions and forbearance, with what the CFPB and FTC say and what to keep in writing.
- Hardship letters. Six editable letters: credit card issuer, auto lender, mortgage servicer, utility, landlord and medical provider.
- Call script. What to say, the questions to ask before agreeing, and what to avoid.
- Who I talked to log. One line per call or letter, plus each creditor at a glance.
- Follow-up letters. Confirm a phone agreement, chase a request with no answer, and ask for the terms in writing.
